💡 What
Added explicit instructional text telling the user how to jump ("Press Space or Up Arrow to jump!") and added
aria-live="polite"to the score text so it announces to screen readers.🎯 Why
Without explicit instructions, players (especially new ones) are left guessing which keys work for interaction, which leads to confusion. Additionally, as the score updates dynamically when goombas are avoided, screen readers would not naturally pick up the change, creating an accessibility barrier.
📸 Before/After
(Verified via Playwright screenshot locally)
Before: Only the score is shown.
After: Instructional text with a slight opacity (0.8) sits neatly under the score, maintaining the retro vibe without distracting from gameplay.
